Rust is a systems programming language that runs blazingly fast, prevents nearly all segfaults, and guarantees thread safety.
This meetup is for:
Practicing and wannabe Rustaceans.
Computer programming enthusiasts interested in learning new programming language that is statically typed, free of undefined behaviour and VM.
Systems programmers, game developer and anybody interested in high performance, high integrity programming.
Adventurous web developers seeking greater understanding of computer systems.

TALK 1. Testing Unsafe Rust
Unsafe Rust code is sometimes necessary for performance or functionality reasons. But without the compile-time safety net of the borrow checker, extra care is needed to get the code right. This talk shares some useful testing tools and techniques to help evaluate the correctness of unsafe Rust.

TALK 2. Mechanical Sympathy in Rust Performance Optimization
Modern computers are fast, but nuances of their design and implementation can have profound impacts on program speed. This talk, based on the author's work contributing performance improvements to the Rust compression library zlib-rs, describes how a closer look at the hardware’s strengths and weaknesses can help make fast software even faster.

ABOUT BRIAN
Brian Pane spent his career leading the development of networking and infrastructure software at companies including Roblox, Pinterest, Dropbox, and Facebook. After retiring, he now focuses on open source Rust software.
